Halle Berry was spotted shopping earlier this week with her three-year-old daughter, Nahla, in tow. I love their coordinating outfits! Nahla is sporting a cute woven sundress in black. Halle has on a long, black and white print maxi dress. They look so good together and they aren’t too matchy-matchy. Halle accessorized her look with some minimal jewelry, a pair of flat sandals, and a large black hobo. But that isn’t just any large black hobo. It is the CC Skye Rich Gypsy Bag and Halle has been seen carrying it everywhere!

Here on BagBliss and over at our sister site theBagForum, it comes to no surprise the amount of members that love the Rocco bag by Alexander Wang. It’s recognized as one of the hottest handbags in the world of fashion and it’s got the assets to prove it. With that said, Rocco fans be aware that there’s a new version available now on the Wang racks for the Fall/Winter season. Those who don’t easily accept change must not worry, as there are no large alterations to the new Rocco, instead, there’s a simple addition of the colder climates’ favorite textile.

Since its creation in 2003, the Trigger has been the “face” of Botkier. It is the style that launched the handbag line and will forever be an icon. And like many other iconic pieces, the Trigger has evolved over the years. First, the original satchel style was made available in two different sizes. Then the style morphed into minis when Boktier introduced the Trigger Moto Cluch and Trigger Clutch. Finally, a fourth member was added to the Trigger family. Meet the Botkier Trigger Saddle Bag!

When I think of lunch money, the first thing that pops into my head is my elementary school days. In those early years, my mom would make an origami pouch out of a dollar bill. The pouch had a little pocket to hold the coins. This way I would always have the exact amount needed to buy my school lunch and the little package was easy to hold on to. I was always so proud of it. Unfortunately, the cafeteria lady did not seem to feel the same way. She would always look annoyed as she tried to unfold my money. Still, the memory is a pleasant one. That’s why I am really digging the new Rebecca Minkoff Lunch Money Pouch!

I’ve been so excited about this new bag by Mulberry that I spotted a few weeks ago. Then, the small version was spotted on the arm of the Duchess of Cambridge during her whirlwind Canadian / American tour. I have to say, she has excellent taste as I fell in love with this bag at first sight!

Mulberry is celebrating it’s 40th Anniversary and appropriately introduced this beautiful new Polly Push Lock that borrows it’s general styling from the Neely bags and features an updated touch of the 70′s with an envelope flap and a spot of glamour with it’s gold tone hardware. I love the two tones of leather that combine for a slightly less formal look. The rolled leather top handle combined with the detachable shoulder strap make it functional and stylish.

If I didn’t know any better, I would have thought this piece belonged to the ceiling of the Sistine Chapel. This may be inspired by deep artistic flair, but has no relations to the great artist Michael Angelo… or to any Biblical sights for that matter.

Instead, Jimmy Choo takes his inspiration for this tote from the segments of the astrological signs. I was first introduced to the Jimmy Choo Scarlet large tote in the trendy Exotic Print. Such a fun design the exotic prints presented and quickly, that eye catching sequined version got a darker transformation with this much deeper Zodiac theme.

This isn’t the first time I have written about a black and white handbag. There is just something about black and white. The high contrast is bold and eye catching, whereas the lack of color is chic and refined. You really can’t go wrong with black and white, it truly is a classic look! But if you think black and white has to look formal and stuffy, then think again. I have found a handbag that is laid back enough for everyday wear. Introducing the Andrea Brueckner Cardiff Medium Satchel!

When it comes to formal wear, I really love scarf-like watercolor prints. They are so soft and feminine. They look wonderful on a long, flowing gown. The look was pretty popular there for awhile, but I think you can definitely still pull it off! I know, I know. There are still those occasions when a gorgeous and colorful number just isn’t appropriate. But not to worry, you can still have that watercolor look even if you’re wearing your favorite little black dress! Simply think outside the box a little… or more appropriately, think outside the box clutch a little! What I mean is that you can get your watercolor-fix in the form of a gorgeous accessory!
